Delivering a quality service isn't a task that's ever finished. Once you've implemented a quality management system (QMS) and gained ISO 9001 certification, you must keep working hard to meet the requirements of your QMS and achieve continuous improvement.
However, many businesses - especially in the current economic climate - find that they cannot afford to employ a permanent in-house quality manager. If this is the case for you, your organisation may benefit more from working with an external QMS consultant who can provide expert advice and assistance as and when you need it.
What a QMS consultant can do for your company:
- Work with you to use quality management to support the strategic direction of your business
- Use Lean and Six Sigma tools to achieve process objectives
- Provide training in internal auditing and continuous improvement to help your staff manage and improve the quality management system

As a result, many insurers are bringing in extra requirements for their policyholders - it was already common for insurers to request a business continuity plan, but in these unprecedented times, additional measures are necessary to safeguard your organisation's future and put insurers at ease.

In order to provide a safe working environment for your staff, we recommend that you carry out a return-to-work risk assessment before asking your team to return to the office. NPT Management Systems can provide this service as well, helping you to identify possible risks and areas of concern.

Conducting internal audits is crucial if you want your business to meet its quality objectives. But it can be difficult to find the time for regular quality audits, especially if your company is already stretched thin by the challenges of COVID-19.
Instead of conducting your own internal quality audits, it may be better to enlist the services of an external quality management specialist. We at NPT Management Systems have been carrying out quality audits for many years, with experience in many different industries (include recruitment, defence, medical devices and the marine sector, to name but a few).
Why are quality audits important?
If you have a quality management system (QMS) in place, frequent quality audits are a critical part of maintaining your ISO 9001 certification and achieving continuous improvement.
An internal quality audit should evaluate the effectiveness of your QMS and ensure that all parts of your organisation are following the correct processes.
Why choose NPT for your internal quality audits?
Due to the ongoing coronavirus crisis, many businesses are finding that they cannot afford to employ a permanent in-house quality management specialist. To save money, you can instead hire an external quality auditor to conduct audits as and when necessary.
If you need an independent expert to keep you on schedule and make sure you're fulfilling the requirements of your quality management system, NPT Management Systems can help. Internal quality audits are just one of the many services we provide - give us a call on 02380 659 867 to discuss your company's requirements.
